I’m 4 days in with Verizon and the mifi2200 or whatever it is and well I”M at my limit!!!! Luckily i still have my shitt ass dial up connection to go back to. Will be returning this piece of shit verizon 5gb cap back to them to store back on the shelf. What a piece of work by Verizon, them taking every last American and putting a cap on something that shouldnt be. CEO’s of Verizon, i hope you repent as soon as possible the way you are screwing every last custmer………………i’m outta here and my stuff fixin to go back to them in box.

Hey all,
I have Clear wireless and I used 60 gigs last month with no speed problems and no hassles. No charges. I live near three towers, so that is a big help, but I was sure they were gonna throttle me or cap me but no word about that yet anyway. I pay under $70 per month for a modem and a usb modem. Have used both at the same time to download, stream, etc. Am I the rare happy customer for Clear?

Comcast has a limit of 250 GB (seriously! huge difference!) and charges less for the service. I just switch today.

Just had a verizon access vz card sent to my husband and I pretty much screamed at him because he got sold the biggest load of crap by a Verizon rep on the planet. I had him call the next day to call him out on the fact that no way would I stay in the 5 gig limit. This rep still tried to b.s. him and say I would have to download all day and night all month and there is now way possible I would reach that limit. After day 3 I am almost a quarter of the way there. He also claimed I would be lightning speed, its worse than dial up 90 percent of the time. He still insisted I should be great if I had good cell coverage in home. I have all bars and no connectivity and errors galore but fast sometimes with no bars showing. And it cuts off all the time, what liars and con artists these people are. The limit is the wost, unrealistic if you plan on using itunes regularly or other downloads even on occasion. What a scam, will be sending this joke back tomorrow.

I forgot to mention the fact that Sprint also said, 300mb limit per month if I have to roam to get signal.

I was called by sprint on aug. 21 2008. They notified me of the new changes. They said I used 30 gigs last month. They said I had till sept. 25 2008. To make up my mind if i was staying or could conform to the new 5 gig rule. Dont know what to do now! I guess they are all switching to this? I am a truck driver, the fuel price is high enough. I use my computer all day for map programs and gps. I watch an online movie almost everynight. I guess I will be getting a sat. dish for my truck and a dashboard gps. All of these companies are crazy. I would rather do without the net all together than to be forced or limited to 5 gigs. A single movie down load is 700 to 800 mb. Come on give me a break. I wish all of u good luck with this also.

Cricket really charges over the limit fees!!! I was about to sign up with them. How is that possible when EVERYTHING says UNLIMITED!?!?!? Who has 100% unlimited broadband besides Sprint. I am a current customer and they suck bigtime!

I just got the Cricket broadband wireless thing and I’m starting to realize, with the amount of surfing and downloading I do on the internet…. I’m definitely going to exceed this 5GB limit fast! That sucks that Cricket advertised “unlimited internet” and they don’t tell you the real story up front and you have to later find out for yourself! Damnit! They should be taken to court for false advertising!
